Chapter 40 Today, the younger generation is here to propose!
The second prince encountered an assassination on the way back to Beijing, which swept the entire capital like a gust of wind. The emperor was furious and ordered Dali Temple to investigate the matter thoroughly, and found out that the mastermind was full of people, and he dared to murder the prince! At this time, the emperor just needed a chance to vent his anger, and he did not allow anyone to challenge his authority again and again.
People in the capital were panicked for a while, Ouyang Ling walked around the house, and finally got into the carriage and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion. After seeing her father and brother, she asked anxiously: "Father, is the second prince not dead?" Is there anything left behind? ”
Prime Minister Ouyang has been anxious for the past few days, although he didn't leave any handle, he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what happened, he didn't expect that the emperor would give such an order this time!
Looking at his anxious daughter, he comforted him: "Ling'er, don't worry! Father will take care of these things, so don't come to the Prime Minister's Mansion again recently! ”
Ouyang Ling nodded worriedly, and then went home!
Lord Liu of Dali Temple has always been worried recently, the emperor is very concerned about this case, and asks people to ask a few times a day, but he has no clue at all, and when he doesn't know what to do, a guard sent a letter.
Lord Liu hurriedly opened the letter, and when he saw the contents inside, Lord Liu was shocked, what was written on the letter was actually the assassin who assassinated the second prince and the evidence!
Lord Liu hurriedly asked people to investigate according to the above evidence, and sure enough, it was true! He knew that this matter was extraordinary, and decided to enter the palace to face the saint.
In the palace, Lord Liu submitted the list of assassins and evidence, and the emperor was furious when he saw it, it turned out that the person who assassinated the second prince was actually Prime Minister Ouyang, and the emperor ordered someone to arrest the prime minister's family, put them in prison, and execute them three days later!
Ouyang Ling's face was as dead as ashes when she heard the news, everything was over! Didn't my father say that there was no handle left? Why was it still found out? Now what? That's right, looking for the eldest prince......
Before she could go out to find the eldest prince, Feng Yinting walked in angrily: "Ouyang Ling, you actually went behind my back to assassinate the second brother, and now it has been found out, although there is no evidence pointing to me, but my father already suspects me!" Have you taken me, the great prince, into account? ”
Ouyang Ling looked at Feng Yinting, who only knew how to blindly blame herself and her family, and hurriedly cleared her responsibilities, and her heart became cold inch by inch. Oh, yes! What else was she counting on? This person has always only had power in his eyes, just like himself! Otherwise, how could the two get married because they want to use each other! Scold...... The person who saw it most clearly from beginning to end was Hua Taoyao! In this life, I am ignorant!
Looking at Ouyang Ling, who was sitting on the ground silently and with a sarcastic face, Feng Yinting was even more angry, she was mainly interested in her father's status in the imperial court when she married her, but now not only did she not help herself, but she caused so much trouble for herself, and she also caused herself to lose Hua Taoyao, the more the eldest prince thought about it, the more angry he became, he was too lazy to pay attention to this woman, and threw his sleeves away!
On the day of the beheading of Prime Minister Ouyang's family, blood flowed all over the ground, crowds of people were surging on the street, many people were sighing, the world is impermanent, a few days ago they were still relatives of the emperor and the country, and their power was monstrous, but now they have become prisoners! However, it is also strange that the lack of people's hearts actually went to assassinate the second prince and angered Long Wei.
The next day, it was rumored that the eldest princess and Ouyang Ling hanged herself in the mansion of the eldest prince, and since then the Ouyang family has withdrawn from the stage of Dongfeng country politics and drowned in the long river of time!
Although everything has nothing to do with the eldest prince, the eldest prince was also grounded by the emperor for half a year and was not allowed to leave the house!
In the Regent's Mansion, Hua Taoyao sat idly in the courtyard eating the snacks prepared by Feng Zhuohua, muttering: "It's better than before, it's progressing!" ”
Feng Zhuohua smiled with a satisfied face and said, "If you like it, it's fine!" ”
"By the way, you put the evidence with Master Liu!" Hua Taoyao suddenly remembered and said.
Feng Zhuohua nodded and said loudly: "Seeing that Feng Yinting is not pleasing to the eye, he broke his wings!" ”
Hua Taoyao stared at Feng Zhuohua for a while, and then smiled helplessly. I still mind that Feng Yinting had a marriage contract with him before! This vinegar is a bit big!
As if knowing that his heart was being seen through, Feng Zhuohua coughed embarrassedly, and then picked up the tea on the table and drank it! At this time, Hua Taoyao smiled even more cheerfully, Feng Zhuohua looked at the smiling woman in front of her, the doting and love in her eyes were almost overflowing, touching her hair and smiling helplessly!
A month later, the second prince finally arrived in the capital, originally thought that he would see a lively scene, but when he entered the city gate, he found that there were only a few people on the street, and these people were all looking in one direction, although they couldn't see anything, but they still looked at that side from time to time, as if they were looking forward to a person coming from that side, and they said a few words, and they didn't even notice that someone approached!
"This eldest sister, why is the street so quiet, is something going on?" The second prince Feng Yinchen's subordinates stepped forward to listen.
When the woman heard this, she became energetic and said, "Have you just come to the capital? Don't you even know such big news? Today is the day when our regent proposed to the second lady of Hua Guogong, Hua Taoyao, I went there early in the morning to take a look, that scene, I really have never seen it, the things that proposed the family have been arranged from the Dingwang Mansion to the Regent's Palace, those are all visible, and there are some invisible things such as land deeds, house deeds, and field deeds...... It's just too many to count, and those gold, silver and jade, I am so dazzled, if it weren't for my family calling me back to guard this shop, I would have to go and see it......"
Seeing that the woman was about to continue, Feng Yinchen's subordinate hurriedly interrupted her: "Didn't you propose marriage to the daughter of Hua Guogong?" Why are all the things sent to the Dingwang Mansion? ”
The woman was also puzzled, and her face was puzzled: "Who said it wasn't?" Everyone is curious! It is said that the flower country was so angry that he dropped several teacups, and his face was blue all day, and he never left the house! ”
A lively person next to him came over and whispered: "I heard that Hua Guogong has a bad relationship with this daughter, and I haven't cared much about her since I was a child, and besides, I have a relative who is a maidservant girl in Huaguo Mansion, and I heard that the Duchess of Hua Guo may have been killed by the eldest aunt, so the eldest aunt is still locked up in the family temple!" King Ding's family was her maternal grandfather's family, so the regent went there to propose marriage. ”
Several people suddenly realized that there was such a reason, no wonder the second young lady Hua Tao didn't wait to see her father!
After the second prince's subordinates thanked the two, they returned to the second prince and reported what they heard to the second prince.
To go to the palace, you have to go through this road, and a few people came to the vicinity of Dingwang's Mansion, which has long been crowded and lively, looking at the black oppression.
The second prince's subordinates said on the side that the second prince was coming and told everyone to get out of the way, but at this time, there was a lot of noise at the gate of the Dingwang Mansion, and no one heard what he was saying.
At this time, the waning moon and the broken rainbow came out with a pot of fine silver, scattered on the ground in front of them, saw the money, people rushed up, and hurried to pick up the money, the scene was a little chaotic, the second prince was squeezed to the side, angry and angry, the people under his hands used martial arts to push the people around them away, and finally vacated a place for a few people to stand.
Looking at the waning moon and broken rainbow who were still throwing money, the second prince was a little annoyed in his heart, he had so much money to give when he proposed a relative, and he didn't know how to get married in the future! How rich is this regent! The treasury is empty, and I don't know how to worry about the king, is it really as my father said, there is a heart of disobedience!
Wanyue and Broken Hong looked at the second prince with a gray face, and they were very amused in their hearts. In fact, the two of them had already recognized him, but they just pretended not to know him, after all, the two princes had been away from Beijing for five years, and there were few who could recognize him, as the four secret guards of the regent, they must know all the people and things about the regent! The mistress said it was called planning for a rainy day.
In King Ding's mansion, King Ding's family sat in the hall, and when they came in, everyone immediately got up. Looking at the regent who seemed to be surrounded by immortal energy, covering the clouds and fog, Qin Che and several juniors were a little excited, this was the first time they had seen the legendary regent so closely! The elders were a little cramped, this was the most powerful person in the Dongfeng Country, and the momentum on his body would always be revealed inadvertently.
Feng Zhuohua looked at Hua Taoyao, who was looking at him, smiled a little connivingly and said, "Elders don't have to be restrained, let's sit down and talk!" ”
"Yes, grandfather, grandmother, sit down! And my aunts and uncles, sit down! Hua Taoyao walked over in time and pulled King Ding and Princess Ding to sit in the top position, and then let the eldest uncle and second uncle sit in the position of King Ding's hand, and finally pulled Feng Zhuohua to sit in the uncle's position. Is that really good? How did you put the regent in that position?
The eldest uncle hurriedly got up, looked at Hua Taoyao and said tentatively: "Taoyao! Why don't you let the regent sit in your uncle's place! ”
"Yes, yes, yes......" said the second uncle and hurriedly got up!
"No, uncle, just sit down! He's a junior now, not a regent! Hua Taoyao smiled and comforted the two uncles.
"Yes! A few elders can call me Feng Zhuohua! Today, the younger generation is here to propose! I hope that all the elders can give me a young son! I will take care of her for the rest of her life! Feng Zhuohua smiled and opened his mouth to echo Hua Taoyao, and looked at the elders sincerely and said the purpose of this trip!
Looking at such a storm, a few people knew that the regent really loved Taoyao, so that she could put down her body and propose to the elders of the family like an ordinary person!
"Good...... We'll be a family from now on! Grandfather wishes you all well! You can't make Tao Yao sad! King Ding's eyes were a little moist and he looked at the two and said.
"Yes, grandfather, don't worry!" Feng Zhuohua was listening to the teachings of the elders like a junior, and nodded in agreement!
If outsiders see such a storm, they will definitely be dumbfounded, is this still the regent who is high above?
